About the event

WhenSeptember 2, 2027
Where1950 Centre Ave, Reading

Minor league baseball returns to FirstEnergy Stadium when the Harrisburg Senators visit the Reading Fightin Phils on September 2, 2027. The two Eastern League clubs share a short stretch of Pennsylvania highway between them, which gives this matchup a familiar edge for fans on both sides.

The Fightin Phils are the Double-A affiliate of the Philadelphia Phillies, so the roster is stocked with prospects working their way toward Citizens Bank Park. Harrisburg fills the same role for the Washington Nationals. Early September baseball in Reading tends to draw a good crowd as the season winds toward its close.

FirstEnergy Stadium sits just off Centre Avenue and has been a Reading landmark for generations. Between innings expect the ballpark staples: on-field contests, music, and concession stands serving everything from ballpark franks to local favorites. It makes for an easy evening out whether you follow the standings closely or just want to catch a game.
